Dr. D’Arcy uses non-invasive imaging techniques to learn more about the
brain/behaviour relationship in healthy individuals and develop new diagnostic tests for neurological patients. He is Group Leader and Research Officer at the NRC's Institute for Biodiangostics (Atlantic), and Associate Professor of Radiology and Adjunct Professor of Neuroscience at Dalhousie University.
The Institute for Biodiagnostics (Atlantic) operates the Neuroimaging Research Laboratory at the QEII Health Sciences Centre (equipped with a 4-Tesla MRI, 64 and 128 channel EEG, and rapid transcranial magnetic simulation) and the Biomedical MRI Research Laboratory at the IWK Health Centre (equipped with a 3-Tesla MRI and a 7-Tesla microimager).
Recent achievements include the opening of the Laboratory for Magnetoencephalography at the IWK Health Centre, which hosts Canada's most advanced 306 channel MEG system; the world's first virtual reality removal of a patient's brain tumour; and the introduction of the Halifax Consciousness Scanner.
